Couplet 1

I’m not entirely sure
What’s come over me
I’m up in the attic
With that old fake Christmas tree
Barely November
I can’t remember me
Looking for Christmas so early

Couplet 2

Could be the days getting shorter
And darker now
All the world's problems
I never could figure out
What’s got me wishin for snow
Not sure but I think I know

Refrain 1

God with us
Will You come be with us
Cause we need a little help
We need Emmanuel

Refrain 2

Love come down
Sing with the angels now
Just like the first Noel
We need Emmanuel

Couplet 3

Christmas this year
Doesn’t feel quite the same
As it did back when I was a boy
There’s specials on TV and holly
And maybe it’s just me
But why’s it so hard to find joy

Couplet 4

I hope I don’t sound ungrateful
There’s food on the table
And family around
But Christ in a manger
Could I ask a favor
Could I just hold You right now

Refrain 1

God with us
Will You come be with us
Cause we need a little help
We need Emmanuel

Refrain 2

Love come down
Sing with the angels now
Just like the first Noel
We need Emmanuel

Boucle

God with us
God with us
God with us
God with us
God with us

Refrain 1

God with us
Will You come be with us
Cause we need a little help
We need Emmanuel

Refrain 2

Love come down
Sing with the angels now
Just like the first Noel
We need Emmanuel
